Rear Window and Rear Quarter Window Sunshades

Has anyone ever purchased the rear window and rear quarter window sunshades from shopminiusa? If so, how do they work and how do you like them?

I've got them on my Clubman instead of tint. I'm sure that they they help in the summer some, but i can't really be sure due to having nothing to compare it to. I didn't get mone from shopminiusa, I think they came from OutMotoring. I really like the way they look. Accomplishes them same look as tint. Plus, if I get pulled over for tint, I can un-install in about two minutes.

Sounds interesting. Are they hard to install and remove? Are they dark clear plastic or screen/netting? Also, how do they hold up on your rear doors? Do they ever shift or come loose when you’re opening or closing the door? Thanks for the help!

They just kinda pop in the area between the window and the trim. They have wire around the outside and are made out of a mesh that is very similar to the sunroof shades. They are super-easy to install or remove. They fit so tightl on my barn doors that they would never fall out. I have a little one on the third door that will fall off occasionally but most of the time it stays put just fine.
